Ancestral Wealth Inheritance System-Chapter 150 Not Satisfied? Raise the Price!
```
"Obsessive-compulsive disorder..." Wang Cong's mouth twitched hard.
He had heard of OCD, some people had to walk on lines when they walked, some had to eat every single grain of rice in their bowl, some had to repeatedly check if they locked the door after going out, and the truly bizarre ones even needed the number of toilet papers to be round.
But he had never heard of someone who had to round up their purchase amounts. People only quibbled over a dime or two when buying vegetables, but here they were talking hundreds of thousands of euros, only to force them into round numbers—were their brains fried?

But Fang Jueyu's bidding this time completely took the wind out of other competitors' sails. They had reason to believe, if someone bid 8.1 million euros, Fang Jueyu would unhesitatingly raise it to 9 million.
"Is there anyone willing to bid higher?" Scarlett's gavel was raised high.
"Once..."
"Twice..."
"Thrice!"
"Bam!"
"Congratulations to the owner of Room 01 for successfully winning this 175th-anniversary Patek Philippe!"
Scarlett's face was full of smiles. The auction host had estimated the final prices for each item, and if she could sell for over the estimated price, she would get a bonus commission.
For example, this watch, the Rothschild family's estimate was 7.4 million euros. That extra 600,000 euros meant she could earn a 60,000 euro commission. Although not a huge sum, little by little it added up, and if today's bidding was fierce, this commission could surpass her original salary.
"Next up is the second auction item, a complete fossilized skeleton of the Five-Colored Crowned Dragon!"
A small cart was slowly pushed up, revealing a dinosaur fossil over three meters long and nearly a meter tall. It maintained excellent integrity, vividly presenting its former form.
"Amazing, they even have this kind of thing!" Fang Jueyu had only glanced briefly at the auction items before; he hadn't paid much attention to the earlier ones. This was quite rare, and even when excavated, most were donated to the nation or housed in museums.
Private collectors rarely owned such complete fossils.
"The starting bid for this Five-Colored Crowned Dragon is 800,000 euros, with minimum increments of 10,000 euros!" Unsurprisingly, starting with the second auction item, the price became lower.
"So cheap?" Fang Jueyu thought this kind of thing would also be sky-high. His villa's lobby in Jiangnan City had some empty space. Getting a dinosaur fossil could be quite the house-warming artifact.
He glanced at Wang Cong.
"Don't ask me; I'm not interested in such decorative but impractical things."
"Fine, then I'll take it!" Fang Jueyu didn't even think about whether someone else would buy what he wanted.
"1 million euros!" Fang Jueyu directly raised the price by a full 200,000 euros.
"Damn, what's with this guy again!" Many guests under their masks showed displeased expressions, thinking at his rate they wouldn't be able to buy anything.
"1.05 million euros!" someone immediately bid.
"2 million euros!"
"Whoa!" A Huaxia buyer in the audience was stunned. The price just doubled in an instant; could they even survive this?
"Old Fang, aren't you raising the bid too aggressively?"
"No problem, slowly raising bit by bit would only waste time. Isn't saving everyone some time a good thing?" Fang Jueyu justified.
On stage, Scarlett was already overjoyed. The host's estimate for this fossil wasn't high; 1.5 million euros was the ceiling. Who would have thought Fang Jueyu's bid would exceed it by 500,000 euros right off the bat?
"What kind of money god is sitting in Room 01!" Scarlett was suddenly very interested in this buyer.
But she didn't show it much, continuing to introduce the next auction item.
"Hmm? A bowl made from gold and diamonds? Not bad, I'll get it for Xinyu to use at meals! 800,000 euros isn't too expensive!"
"Chopsticks made from pure jade? I'll take those too!"
"Hawking's wheelchair? What kind of fool put this up for auction?" Fang Jueyu was amused by the item, "Never mind, Wang Cong, if you ever break a leg playing basketball, I'll lend it to you. Maybe you'll absorb Hawking's wisdom!"
Wang Cong silently clenched his fists...
One by one, ten auction items, the expensive ones costing millions of euros, the cheaper ones several hundred thousand euros, were all won by Fang Jueyu. Although this was just the cheapest batch of auction items, it still sparked dissatisfaction among many.
"The person in Room 01, aren't you being too domineering?" A rich, slightly angry voice came from the room next to Fang Jueyu's.
This statement resonated with many, as some of the wealthy didn't have very deep pockets and were only there for certain auction items. But Fang Jueyu's uncommon bidding method left them without any participation.

The atmosphere of the whole auction suddenly became lively. Some people were discontent, while others watched on with amusement.
"Have I broken any rules?" Fang Jueyu activated the speaker system in his room.
"Hmm? A Huaxia person?" Fang Jueyu didn't use English or any other language; he wasn't trying to hide his identity anyway.
"When did Huaxia produce such a wealthy person?" Many were curiously looking at Room 01. Although the individual auction prices weren't exceptionally high, together they exceeded 20 million euros. That wasn't a small sum. Many probably only brought this much money along.
"Miss Scarlett, is there a rule in this auction that one person can't buy many items?" Fang Jueyu asked.
"Of course not, sir!" Scarlett quickly had Fang Jueyu's words translated through her earpiece. And thanks to Fang Jueyu, Scarlett already had an extra income of over 1 million euros. She had every reason to stand by him.
"Then that's it. Why are you all here babbling nonsense?" Fang Jueyu said, "I'm following the rules for the auction. As long as I offer the most money, the item is mine. You got a problem with that?"
Fang Jueyu retorted boldly, clearly in a good mood, while the person in the next room seemed to be picking a fight.
"Sir, our lack of bidding doesn't mean we lack the ability to continue," that voice said icily.
"If you're unhappy, raise your bid! Otherwise, why stay like a stubborn banana snake!" Fang Jueyu couldn't stand busybodies.
"Sir, don't go too far!" the voice grew increasingly angry.
"Am I going too far?" Fang Jueyu chuckled, "Alright, since you think I'm overdoing it, then I'll do a bit more. From now on, if you manage to buy anything at this auction today, I'll take your surname!"
